Your chances aren't great. Retake.

I think you have a shot in the lower T14 schools depending on how you can frame your internship involvement. But you may want to retake for upper T14 schools
URM, 164, 3.9(attends upper T14 school)

I spent my summers doing internships at na nonprofits (Ncai and niga) and i am strongly connected to my tribe. I am highly motivated to get into a t14 but my first two years i spent at an east coast private uni was a disaster to my gpa. Since transfering i have a 3.8.

So does that mean you're still in school? If you still have to finish the year out and you're doing well, I'd wait a cycle so your GPA will be higher. Also gives you more time to retake.
